Emma stayed all night. She and I will go to brunch at Aunt Angie's house. She will be with me till Monday. It's amazing how quickly children grow. Seems more so when you do not see them often.
Lynzie ( my daughter Liz's daughter) is expecting her first child in December. I could see she seemed tired yesterday. She's an R.N. so she has busy work schedules. The girls all stayed long enough for Papaw Teddy to get hugs and have a few minutes of catching up.
If Layla were not being breast fed by Emily, she might have stayed over night also. :) Emma says she is Layla's favorite aunt. I think she will be. I can see Emma baby sitting one day. I had to watch my siblings when I was about 12. You know, back when you could clobber your brothers and sisters. :):) The best part of baby sitting siblings. LOL
Wishing all a beautiful Sunday. The sun is shining once again here, and I am loving it. XO
I am so happy all the kids came to visit. I can't believe how big Emily is getting! She is so grown up all of a sudden! I hope you have a great Sunday with her. Enjoy every moment of it---she will be babysitting and won't be around as much soon. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteDiana, I think you mean Emma...Emily is my grandson Brock sweetheart. Layla Rose's mother. Ted asked Liz if Emma was six foot yet. LOL. Well she's about 5' 3' and only 11 yrs. old. I just fed her waffles. :) Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteHi Susie, It's amazing to me how much both Emma and Layla Rose have grown. They are both so pretty. Hope you have a very nice Sunday.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mildred. It is almost like you can not turn your back on children...they will grow another inch. I will enjoy my time with my Emma Pooh...I have missed her so much. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteWhat a beautiful family you have Susie. My granddaughter's name is Emily. She enjoys gymnastics and horseback jumping. Family is so important. Enjoy Sunday Susie. See ya.

Paul, I like when kids like sports of any kind. Emma has played basket ball and soccer. My girls played all kinds of H.S. sports. Some summer softball too. Hope you have a great Sunday. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
Deleteooohhh, the best saturday visitors. Adorable girls. One time I was babysitting my younger brother and sister and while I Was chasing my brother he ran under the tree....I am 4 years older and ran into the tree branch. ow!
ReplyDeleteLinda, We love those babies don't we?LOL. I just kissed all over Layla while I had her here. Her sweet little toes and hands. My Emma Pooh is growing very fast. I think she is going to have her father's height....he's like 6'3'. I laughed about you chasing your brother...those rascals. I had six brothers and four sisters....no wonder I wanted to clobber somebody. LOL. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI enjoy them as they grow up, but wonder why does it have to happen so quickly? It would be nice to enjoy each stage for a longer period (and maybe some not so long)! Sweet kids and I'm glad you have them for company this weekend. Blessings. (I do remember clobbering my sister a time or two.)
ReplyDeleteNonnie, It's been like old times with Emma staying the night. I love that girl so much. She's going to be grown and gone on her own one day...and I hope that day is a long way off for now. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteOh what a blessed visit you had with all your girls. They are all adorable.
ReplyDeleteWith our twelve ranging from 2 to 30 we have seen a lot of "growing up"....sending love and hugs...Blessings for a great Sunday.
Wanda. I have enjoyed my time with Emma last night and today. It's been like old times. I will squeeze her down little again if I only could. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteWhat a delightful day! Nothing like the grands around to lift everyone's spirit. They are so special.
ReplyDeleteJudy
Judy, It has done me good to have the family here. Emma spent the night and will again tonight. I have loved having her here. I want to wish my girls to me little and be all mine again... they were my whole life once. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteAdorable Susie. Glad you had some time with them. Happy new week.
ReplyDeleteKris
Kris, I am seriously going to have to grab every moment I can with my grandkids. As you can see how much they have grown . Layla is 4 months old already. This is only the fourth time I have been with her. Emma is growing way too fast. It can be heart breaking. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteWhat a good time everyone must have had. I started baby sitting at 11. Seems wild now when 11 year olds have baby sitters, but I baby sat during the day regularly for the daughter of a friend of the family. I was so proud to make some money and have a job.
ReplyDeleteCarol, I was the oldest daughter in our family, so I always had responsibility of watching the younger kids. Some times when I was 15 my mom let me watch other's kids and I made some money then...like you said that was nice. :) I can not even imagine my granddaughters having to do what all I did growing up. Strange how 11 today is not the 11 of yesteryear. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
Deletesuch a grat time you all had, sounds like a perfect weekend for you, beautiful photost!! Love those smiles,, and such beautiful hair!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Laurie. I did need all those wonderful hugs. Can we ever get too many? Emma's hair is longer than her moms used to be at that age. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteSusie, what a fun time you had with all the family. Emma looks darling, and she's getting so big. I love her crimped hair! This is a wonderful picture of you in the yellow shirt with the flag. You should wear that for the 4th of July this year. I notice that it's from Old Navy. Did you buy that this year? I'll have to go get one for myself hehehe.
ReplyDeletelove, ~Sheri
Hi Sheri, It was a great time with all the girls. Emma and I did truly enjoy our time together. We did make crafts. She went swimming, then out to eat and then to the $ store so she could get a couple snacks. She drew pictures and played on her phone and watch some Disney movies. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI love visits from very special people! I'm sure you have enjoyed your time! Such cute little girls! Enjoy the moments! Blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteCindy, I had been needing time with Emma...as she had not been here to stay over night since around Christmas. We had a fun time. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteWeekends are just perfect times for family visits!! Loved the photos!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, Hope you are doing well and LD is recovering nicely. I enjoyed my time with my girls. It meant so much to have Emma spend time here too. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
Deleteall the girls are so pretty...i love having mine spend the night, too.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I am going to Old Navy today and see if I can get a flag shirt just like yours. :)
BJ, you are so sweet. That shirt is a really old one. Every year we all get flag shirts to wear to our 4th of July get together. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
